20. Single forever
Richard This can't be happening, not now. Not after how long I've waited to get to her, to finally see her, to feel her, to let my wolf let loose and yearn for her. Father can’t do this to me, especially not now. Not at the expense of my happiness, my future and my peace, her safety and that of Odyssey. If only he knew the kind of woman this princess whom he speaks so highly of actually is and how desperate she can be, to what extent she can go just to get the throne. "This shouldn't be happening," I yelled, pulling my hair with my fingers. “I’m afraid it’s already happening.” Someone said from outside my room but I didn't turn as the voice was very familiar to be confused for someone else’s. “What do you want?” I snapped, without looking at whom the voice belonged to. She was here to either mock or rub it in my face but what was the difference? Absolutely nothing! Getting married to Gwendolyn was the same as spending forever with Nemiueh or worse. “Nothing, I have never wanted

21. Safe haven
HenriettaIt was evening and the fierce sun in Odyssey was beginning to set, soothing wind graced my skin causing me to adjust the robe around my arm to protect myself from the cold and raised my finger to my eyes to brush off the particles of dust that had been pushed in by the wind.“I can't wait to get to the garden, at least I would be able to get a moment's peace from all of this drama.” I muttered under my breath. Gwendolyn, getting married to the man in my dreams. What does she derive so much joy from taking almost everything that belongs to me? Everything that gets close to me disappears. “Sometimes, we give others the right to do what they do to us.” i heard a calm and soothing voice say beside me and although I wasn't expecting anyone to be following me, anyone but chloe but she wasn't the one rather a very beautiful lady, with bright hazel green eyes that seemed like they could see deep into your soul and fetch the truth out of a hardened liar.She was tall, taller than I

22. Ahead
Richard I was waiting restlessly in my room for Martas’ return. She has been out since noon to meet with Henrietta and speak to her on my behalf and even though I was against it from the moment she suggested it, Charles made me give in. “What is taking her so long?” I complained, asking for the hundredth time in a row as I paced my room, continuously looking out of the door to see if she was close but she wasnt and each time I checked, there's always someone coming but then, it is not her and it pisses me off even more. “Relax,” Charles said in a mere whisper, “She'll be here soon.” He assured me but I couldn't wait any longer. I was running out of patience but was mostly tensed as to what might have been the outcome of their conversation. “I should go to them,” I said, turning around to face the door when I found Marta approaching us with a bright smile on her face. “I've missed you,” She said with a pout while rushing past me to meet Charles whose arms were already wide apart

23. Scars
Henrietta"Help me," He pleaded as he held strongly onto the hem of my dress. I do not know why but he wasn't looking at me, rather he was staring at the dark sky. It was as if he wasn't seeing my face. "Save me," He cried, "are you there? " he asked, pulling hard on my dress.My heart felt like it was going to be torn into a million shreds, but was being held firm by something strong, something that also made it hard for me to swallow down the lump in my throat which only grew even wider and bigger.Suddenly, my eyes were beginning to burn hot as tears flowed freely down my chin. I raised my hand to touch the hair on his head but it didn't feel like hair rather, they felt fluffy and thick. When my eyes landed on it, I realized he was in his full form as a wolf."Where did you come from?" I asked, gently lowering myself so that I was kneeling in front of him but he was no longer there. He was standing in a room, a dark room, surrounded by creatures I couldn't really identify. They w

24. Powers
Henrietta “And Gwendolyn?” I managed to ask and he shook his head. “Not even your father can stand between mates, especially when neither of them mean any harm,” he explained. “Except your father wants his daughter to be sad all the days of her life.” He added but I knew he was referring to both Gwendolyn and I. The hand with which he cupped my face with, slowly brushed my face and my stomach began to tighten with mixed feelings but majorly of excitement, “I will not be forced to spend the rest of my life with a woman whom I can not stand, neither would I be forced into a marriage of convenience, when my mate is still alive and has been found.” He growled and a small smile played on my lips. He's quite possessive too. I can’t really say what I feel but I knew I felt at home with him. Maybe I should give in to Martas’ words but it is too early to let my guard down. I was still deep in thoughts when I felt strong arms wrapped around me, holding me so tight that it didn't want t

25. Roses
Henrietta The sun was beginning to set when Chloe asked that she treat my hair. She said it's been a while since she last did it, but I knew it hasn't even been up to a week. She would make up anything just to be with me and avoid other choirs done by the other maids and I let her, especially when Gwendolyn seizes it as an opportunity to torment and abuse her. "Gwendolyn parades herself with one red head that arrived in Odyssey along with the pack." Chloe said, "they seem to get along so well. It's even as if they think alike." She added. "Hmm, really?" I replied in an uninterested tone but knowing how she would bug me after such a reply, I added, "for anyone to walk with my sister, you're either like her, her or think like her." "Birds of a feather, mhm," she replied, without taking her eyes off the collection of hair treatment bottles. "Oil, comb, brush, ointment, don't see the difference. Petals and incense," Chloe listed in a sing-song voice, holding up each item as she iden

26. Grey
Richard I wish she was one of us then maybe it would have been a lot easier for me. This difficulty was beginning to get the better of me. It was beginning to frustrate me. How could she not see that I loved her? How could she not understand what it means to be a mate? I asked myself over and over again the moment I got to the place I asked that she meet me. She should be here any moment from now or was the direction to this place too difficult for her to understand? Of course not, she is smart and that's for sure. While waiting, I decided to pick a few fruits which I felt she would love, at least something to chew on while we talked or maybe stare at each other because I know how speechless she makes me. I took off my robe and made a depth in it. I walked by a few trees to pick succulent berries, which is one of the reasons I love the garden. Its bountiful harvest and beautiful tall trees that served as not just fruits but shade as well. The more fruits I gathered, the deepe

27. Alpha
Henrietta My back hurts. My head is on fire, the amount of pain surging through me is unbearable, its…I cant breathe, “ouch,” I feel like i was made a referee in a fight between a huge vampire and a werewolf but happen to be too small for their fight and was rather fought against. I was made the punching bag of the werewolf and blood bank for the vampire.Speaking of werewolves, I forcefully opened my eyes but the blasting ray of sunlight pierced my eyes and caused me to clench them back with as much strength as I could fathom. “She’s up!'' I heard a familiar voice yell in a shaky tone and the sound of hurried footsteps approaching me, “She was up just now, is she going to be fine,” a different voice asked.“We need her to get better before the king starts looking for her bu…” “The king already asked for an emergency meeting today,” a voice belonging to chloe added, “We heard it's urgent and everyone in the kingdom must be present, at everyone in the castle especially our guests.

28. Weird
Henrietta "I tripped, really?" I asked immediately if Chloe was out of hearing distance and he sighed."I'm sorry." He said in a whisper and I raised my brow as I watched him walk to the bed with every word that left his lips, "I'm sorry for scaring you, I'm sorry for almost getting ahead of my plan, I'm sorry, I let Grey be in charge." He added."It was just you and I in the woods, Richard. Just us." I rolled my eyes when he mentioned someone's name, "You're beginning to give me the red flags, a liar, really?" I tsked and he seemed taken aback for a moment."A liar? I'm not a liar. You don't expect me to tell them exactly what happened back there, your father would have my head." He yelled in frustration."I'm not talking about that, I'm not stupid to tell them either. Who is Grey, you lying Alpha?" I asked and his eyes widened before a burst of laughter filled the room."I'm sorry for being dressed in a clown costume?" I asked in a sarcastic voice and he shook his head but didn't

29. Chloe
Henrietta “At least I don't let my eyebrows grow unequally, so that they outgrow my eyes,” I said with a smile on my face and she gasped before bringing her hand to her face. She would feel so insecure throughout this meeting and that is for sure seeing how she twisted in her seat and tried to hide her face until I got to my seat with a smile of satisfaction on my face. “Henrietta,” my father called in calm voice as he looked at me, “You look gorgeous,” he said with a light chuckle, “You are beginning to look just like your mother with every passing day,” he said with a sad smile and I brought my hand to cup his face as I smiled back at him, “except that she doesn't attend functions as late as you do.” he added and an impromptu laugh escaped my lips. “Father,” I whined through my laughter and he laughed lightly. “You really should work on that as well.” he stated and i shut my eyes for a nanosecond with a slight nod. “I will.” I assured him and he sighed before getting on his fe
